Newbie from Florida, picking up my first marine tank today!

Hey guys!
Super excited to start this new hobby. Going to be picking up a used 32 Biocube today!
Using the previous owners sand/live rock/and water. Seems like a pretty reputable seller based on the amount of healthy looking tanks in his house so I feel comfortable continuing what he had going on.
I look forward to learning from you guys!

Hi, welcome to R2R!

Nice setup there, congrats! Very exciting indeed.

Maybe take the opportunity to clean off the rocks a bit when transferring the tank. Nothing crazy, just a toothbrush and a bucket of saltwater, swish them around in the water before setting them back up in the tank.
